The shock-rocker has been discussing the aftermath of events in May when 15-year-old Justin Doucet of Louisiana, USA, ordered a teacher to say "Hail Marilyn Manson" at gunpoint, and began shooting when she refused. He missed, but went to a toilet where he shot himself in the head, finally dying some days later.
Now Manson, real name Brian Warner, tells Spin Magazine: "On the new record I say, 'F*ck the TV and the radio - I'm gonna take credit for the death toll'. It's all I get blamed for. So if I'm going to get blamed for it, I want credit for it.
